Pullet: Lavender Orpington, Shipping Week of 01/26/2026

The Orpington's lavender or "self blue" color is rare and highly prized in the world of chickens, and we've selected our breeder flock for pure beauty. They are a large, loosely-feathered bird with an upright stance and a medium-sized single comb. Orpingtons are adored for their good nature and willingness to be handled.

Benefits of Purchasing Started Pullets

• Started pullets are an excellent option for people who don't have the time, equipment, or desire to care for chicks.
• These juvenile chicks are sexed twice, once at hatch and again at six weeks old, which reduces your chance of ending up with roosters.
• The minimum order is just 2 chicks!

Additional Pullet Information

• These pullets will be vaccinated for Marek's disease and MG (Mycoplasma gallisepticum)
• Our six-week started pullets are floor-raised and socialized with humans, and their beaks are intact--we never trim.
• Please keep your 6-week-olds quarantined from your existing flock for four or more weeks, and take care when introducing them.
